Yassamine Mather and Chris Strafford write on how internal squabbles continue to plague the Islamist Regime. Meanwhile the opposition movement continues to radicalise and surge ahead. They point to need to oppose sanctions against Iran saying: Sanctions against Iran are a stepping stone to military aggression. Full text at link.

Each day that goes by, the gap between the protesters and the leaders of the ‘green movement’ increases. The statements of Moussavi, Khatami and Karroubi expressing allegiance to Khomeini will not go down well with many of their own supporters. Moussavi is clearly concerned that he is losing control of the protests, as he keeps warning everyone about the threat of “radicalism”. On Monday December 15 he said: “If people’s questions were answered and they were not confronted violently, we would not see some of the controversial moves today ... People want an end to the security-obsessed atmosphere: in such an atmosphere radicalism grows.” read full story / add a comment

clare / anti-war / imperialism / news report Saturday December 19, 2009 10:42 by RSF
The very idea that the future of Shannon Airport should be dependent on American conflict around the world is the latest U turn from the Green Party in Clare, a spokesman for Republican Sinn Fein said today.

Paddy Kenneally from Crusheen, a party spokesman in North Clare said that the latest statement by the Green Party Councillor Brian Meany in relation to the future of Shannon Airport is an insult to all the Irish people who have campaigned against imperialism and American military expansionism.

To say that more American troop carrying planes should transit Shannon Airport and that the Airport should go after this business is an appalling statement to make. read full story / add a comment

Those metals can cause tumours and problems with fertility, and they can have serious effects on newly born babies, like deformities and genetic pathologies. The metals are in particular tungsten, mercury, molybdenum, cadmium and cobalt.

Yassamine Mather and Chris Srafford write on the developing unrest in Iran. They say its no longer just a matter of the leadership: the future of the Islamic Republic of Iran is in question. Full text at link.

The 56th anniversary of the murder of three students by the shah's security forces during vice president Richard Nixon?s visit to Tehran in 1953 may prove to be the last Students Day commemorated under the heel of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Hundreds of thousands of students, youth and workers took to the streets in protest against the regime and the barbaric repression meted out since the June elections.People taking part in the various actions carried Iranian flags, but without the Islamic Republic's sign of Allah, showing that the movement is moving beyond the slogans of the "reformists".

Paul Roberts writes on the continuing campaign of Ethnic Cleansing carried out against the Palestinian People. Not just by the state of Israel: Zionists Planters are alloed to carry out attacks on Palestinians and to destroy their property with impunity. Full text at link.

“Settlers attack West Bank mosque and burn holy Muslim books” was a London Times headline on December 11, 2009.

These attacks, together with the demolition of Palestinian homes, the uprooting of Palestinians’ olive groves, the innumerable checkpoints that prevent Palestinians from accessing schools, work, and medical care, the Israeli Wall that denies Palestinians access to the land stolen from them, and the isolation and blockade of the Gaza Ghetto, are part of the Israeli government’s policy of genocide for the Palestinians. read full story / add a comment
